(4,575 posts)But he has always been fixated on numbers or certain numbers and whatever he saw in those numbers seems to have shaken him.
Also the other day when be said something about he enjoyed being our president or something like that I thought he knew that this will end his presidency.
underpants
(182,788 posts)I read here somewhere tonight that the WH really thinks 400. Oh god.
Remember Burx and Fauci said 100-200...200,000...IF we do everything right. Everything.
Politics aside this is just astounding.

(16,887 posts)Add one or two more Zeros onto those numbers when its lol done...
Other states from CA and NY and WA will do much much worse....and those states Governors (Hello Trump ass kissing DeSantis and others like him, will have the most dead per capital).
The lots of testing comments is all bullshit...
There wont be enough Ventilators for American citizens and the month that Trump and his administration let slip from Early February through early/Mid March will be responsible for these deaths by at least 90%
And you can bet that Trump with Barrs help will pull a Victor Urban in next months
I feel sick....

Totally Tunsie
(10,885 posts)Drs. Fauci and Birx must have to tie Chump to his chair and beat their models and statistics into him. Looks like they're finally getting through to him, even if just a little.
LOL - Chump is projecting again: "What would have happened if we did nothing?" Well, Jerkoff, had it been totally up to you, we would have found out.

Fire someone, Lord Littlehands. That always makes you feel better. That is, if there's still anyone left working in the White House.

(46,166 posts)Meanwhile the administration is pulling crap in the background relaxing EPA regs.
I'm not watching. But this tone sounds suspicious. More pulling the wool over the viewer's eyes with a new and improved tone.

(14,742 posts)MoscowMitch admitted trump screwed up. Sure, he made up some bs excuse, but in essence he was saying trump screwed up.
People are dying, and it isn't just dems. And the death rates are spiraling out of control in red states, and even without testing, people know whats causing it.
And trump won't act. Despite what he says, he is still not allowing anything to be done.
Of course the staff is on a death march.

(8,049 posts)That's all he cares about...his numbers.
Jarqui
(10,123 posts)I've been saying for sometime they cannot blow obituaries off as fake news.
There may be a bunch of ignorant deadhead MAGAts in the red states but when their loved ones get packed into a body bag and tossed in the back of a refrigerator truck, they're going to have feelings about that and wonder why it had to happen to them just like the rest of us. Trump cannot escape the blame a number of them will conclude.

(360 posts)when they tell him that his fingerprints and DNA were at the crime scene, he has no alibi and had a huge motive.

(182,788 posts)He called on Jim Acosta on two different occasions and Acosta was very um straightforward with him. No vitriol from either (Trump took a small shot at CNN).
Birx and Fauci spelled out - 100,000 to 200,000 (I typed that out for a reason) deaths and thats in April. Thats if we do everything right. The next two weeks are going to be really really really bad. I read elsewhere here that the WH internally thinks maybe 400,000.
Also noted here, Acosta said that that if Trump is freaked out its bad.
